Angular 2 - import external flyers typescript library

Question

I am trying to import a typescript sheet library into my angular 2 application.

This is my map component. Ive installed sheetlet.d.ts with tsd installed, and my application does not complain /// <reference path="../../typings/leaflet/leaflet.d.ts"/>, but when I try to use L.map, which is the exported module in the leaflet.d.ts file, I get the error "ReferenceError: L is not defined" . This is the first time I am trying to import an external typescript library into angular 2 and obviously doing something wrong.

/// <reference path="../../typings/leaflet/leaflet.d.ts"/>
import { Component } from 'angular2/core';
@Component({
  selector: 'map',
  template: `
        <div id="map"></div>
  `,
})
export class Map{
    constructor(){
          var map = new L.Map('map', {
             zoomControl: false
         });
    }

package.json

{
  "dependencies": {
    "angular2": "^2.0.0-beta.3",
    "es6-promise": "^3.0.2",
    "es6-shim": "^0.33.3",

    "tsc:w": "tsc -w",
    "lite": "lite-server",
    "start": "concurrent \"npm run tsc:w\" \"npm run lite\" "
  }
}

tsd.json

{
  "version": "v4",
  "repo": "borisyankov/DefinitelyTyped",
  "ref": "master",
  "path": "typings",
  "bundle": "typings/tsd.d.ts",
  "installed": {
    "leaflet/leaflet.d.ts": {
      "commit": "1da639a106527e0c4010b354a1efe52a3059a291"
    }
  }
}

Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong?

Thank!

JS-:

System.config({
  map: {
    leaflet: 'https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/leaflet/0.7.7/leaflet.js'
  },
  packages: {'app': {defaultExtension: 'ts'}} 
});
System.import('app/main')
        .then(null, console.error.bind(console));

:

import {Component, OnInit} from 'angular2/core';
import leaflet from 'leaflet';

angular -cli . :)

npm install leaflet --save

angular -cli-build.js

vendorNpmFiles: [
   ..................
   'leaflet/**/*.js',
    ....................
  ]

src/system-config.ts,

const map:any ={
     ..................
   'leaflet': 'vendor/leaflet/dist',
    ....................

}

const packages: any = {
  'leaflet': {
    format: 'cjs'
  }

};

src/index.html,

 <script type="text/javascript" src="vendor/leaflet/dist/leaflet.js"></script>

css

  <link rel="stylesheet" href="http://cdn.leafletjs.com/leaflet/v0.7.7/leaflet.css" />

,

declare let L: any;
@Component({
  moduleId: module.id,
  selector: 'app-map',
  templateUrl: 'map.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['map.component.css']
})
export class MapComponent implements OnInit, AfterViewInit {
 leafletMap: any;
 ngAfterViewInit() {
    this.leafletMap = L.map("map").setView([23.709921, 90.407143], 7);
 }
}

Answer 3

, ,

npm install @types/leaflet@latest --save

index.html.

.

import {control, LatLng, layerGroup, LayerGroup, Map} from "leaflet";

In addition, map initialization should occur in ngOnInit(); the use of the constructor is not intended for logic.

Answer 4

I had to make some changes to get Thierry Templier to respond with systemjs and Angular 2.4.

I added the leaflet to my system.config.js file in the same way as it states, but in my component I had to import it as follows:

import * as L from 'leaflet';

and then class L was recognized in my MapComponent

export class MapComponent {
    let map = L.map("map").setView([38, -77], 13);
            L.tileLayer('http://{s}.tile.osm.org/{z}/{x}/{y}.png', {
            attribution: '&copy; <a href="http://osm.org/copyright">OpenStreetMap</a> contributors'
            }).addTo(map);
    }
